Overview
Genetic Chickengineering is an original implementation of resource chickens heavily inspired by SetyCz's popular Forge mod Chicken. The main difference between the two is that while Chicken has a predetermined tree of chicken breeding, Genetic Chickengineering uses a very basic simulation of genetics to determine chicken progression (meaning you may want to brush up on Punnett squares).
This is a mid- to late-game addon for Slimefun. Furthermore, it uses Paper-specific API calls, and as such will not work on Spigot servers.
Plugin Basics
See the wiki for more detailed information
Overworld chickens have almost completely become the dominant, "normal" chickens that we know and love today, however there are certain chickens that carry latent powers. With the right tools, time, and care, these latent powers may be able to be uncovered, and the true potential of chickens can be unlocked.
The first step in genetically enhancing your chickens is to craft a Chicken Net and turn some chickens into Pocket Chickens. Next, build a Genetic Sequencer to analyze the Pocket Chicken and learn its genotypes. When you've collected two or more favorable chickens, craft a Private Coop and leave your chickens to their business. After some time, they'll roll the genetic dice and make a baby! From there, release the chicken and let them grow into an adult, and the cycle can continue.
Eventually, your efforts will be rewarded with a special chicken that can produce resources! However, they can't do it alone... This is where the Excitation Chamber comes into play. Insert a chicken with at least one homozygous recessive pair of alleles (one set of two lower-case letters) and it will begin producing a resource! Not all chickens of a resource type will produce resources at the same rate, though. Due to interference from heterozygous allele pairs (one dominant and one recessive), chickens which have only homozygous pairs will make resources faster than those with heterozygous genes. Add some cargo nodes to the Excitation Chamber to keep a steady, neverending supply of different resources!
See the sequence table or your in-game Slimefun Guide to learn how to make specific resources, or just start breeding chickens like crazy until you have all 64 varieties!

By default, a chicken will display its resource in a custom name after it has
been passed through a Genetic Sequencer. If the chicken already has a custom
name, then the resource will be appended to the end of that name. This feature
can be turned off globally in the plugin's config.yml.

None of this would be possible if it weren't for TheBusyBiscuit's hard work on Slimefun, as well as the tremendously helpful Developer's Guide. Furthermore, a significant portion of this addon uses similar or identical code from MobCapturer, and this project would not have gotten off the ground without it.
For this reborn version, I (ybw0014) would like to thank the following people:
- @kii-chan-reloaded (for the original plugin)
- @xMikux (Traditional Chinese translation)
- @LobbyTech-MC (Simplified Chinese translation)
- @zimzaza4 (Make it compatible with Slimefun RC-27+)
- @CrispyXYZ (current maintainer for Simplified Chinese version, added Ultimate Exciation Chamber)
